  1. Re:Half of work force to be automated on Outsourced Tech Jobs Are Increasingly Being Automated · · Score: 1

    More like the Jetson's culture model?

  2. Re:Full circle on Outsourced Tech Jobs Are Increasingly Being Automated · · Score: 1

    More interestingly, why are corps needed when what one needs, one can aquire just by downloading?

  3. "obvious economic move" on Outsourced Tech Jobs Are Increasingly Being Automated · · Score: 1

    On so many levels does this statement show a lack. Is humanity so desparte to hear words?

  4. Re:A lease on a CPO might be interesting... on Tesla Is Starting a Certified Preowned Program · · Score: 1

    My thinking is that SMOG is not a high priority on your priority list. Maybe rolling through Beijing with the big dogs is a good thing? Yukon has a nice body style, it's a shame the engineers at GM slept through Fuel Cell class; but I hear that may be changing.

  5. Re:He thought she had maliaria, not Ebola on Texas Ebola Patient Dies · · Score: 1

    He had a hell of a plan.

  6. Re:Ah yes... on Texas Ebola Patient Dies · · Score: 1

    Instead of "Walking Dead", lets consider Ebola.

    Benefits could be my student loan balance.

  7. Re:This won't end well. on NASA Study: Ocean Abyss Has Not Warmed · · Score: 1

    I believe the worst part are the criminals that put "NASA" on the label. Their motives are not moral, or lawful.

  8. Re:Rising relative to what? on NASA Study: Ocean Abyss Has Not Warmed · · Score: 1

    Wasn't that a Disney movie?

  9. Why From 2005? on NASA Study: Ocean Abyss Has Not Warmed · · Score: 1

    Seems strange to me that temperatures taken earlier were ignored. Of course that pesky Artic Ice Cap is going away anyway, so who cares?

    One could live the myth in Beijing?

  11. Re: Boost mobile on Ask Slashdot: Is It Worth Being Grandfathered On Verizon's Unlimited Data Plan? · · Score: 1

    I believe that the citizens of Hong Kong have demonstrated successfully the technology of Cell Phone to Cell Phone communication without working Cell Phone Towers. Consider the advent of a G5 protocol combined with Cell Phone to Cell Phone communications. Verizon will have to either consider what to do with equipment that is fundamentally, obsolete. What is the scrap value of a Cell Tower?

  12. Re:What will happen to their physical condition on NASA Eyes Crew Deep Sleep Option For Mars Mission · · Score: 1

    Your teenager is resting is not 9 months long; even though it feels like it.

  13. Re:What will happen to their physical condition on NASA Eyes Crew Deep Sleep Option For Mars Mission · · Score: 1

    Maybe we should try for the Moon? It's a lot closer, and it would give us time to work out these types of issues?

  14. Re:What will happen to their physical condition on NASA Eyes Crew Deep Sleep Option For Mars Mission · · Score: 1

    Sounds workable. But what of lack of gravity? How does the sleeping one deal with bone loss?

  15. Re:Boost mobile on Ask Slashdot: Is It Worth Being Grandfathered On Verizon's Unlimited Data Plan? · · Score: 1

    Maybe one could consider the wi-fi setups General Motors is testing for their cars? This is the reason for moving cell towers to more sparse locations. When the Internet is allowed to bypass cell towers, then maybe they should be placed somewhere more useful? Will there be a need for Ericsson Int?

  16. Re:Boost mobile on Ask Slashdot: Is It Worth Being Grandfathered On Verizon's Unlimited Data Plan? · · Score: 1

    With the ubiquity of objects connected to the internet and increasing wi-fi like capabilities for those objects. One has to consider their investments in companies like Verizon. Is Verizon still going to be relavent? With band width throttling allowed on Netflix, and Verizon going into the same industry as Netflix; one has to ask, "why?" With software now able to bypass the Cell Tower, maybe the Cell Towers can be moved to more sparse locations, and still be userful?

    It will interesting to see what happens when the first 3D Printed cell phone answers a phone call. Then someone using this new type of cell phone; orders a pizza.

  17. Re:the solution: on The $1,200 DIY Gunsmithing Machine · · Score: 1

    Could the same CNC machine build a component for home fuel cells?

  18. Re:What about Front Door Security? on Obama Administration Argues For Backdoors In Personal Electronics · · Score: 1

    The Terrorists! The Terrorists! What of them? Should they alone, be ignored?

    I think at this point in time that if law enforcement can't get to it, maybe, just maybe, there's a good chance; it doesn't exist.

    Damn! Coffee all over the keyboard! XD

    What's even funnier is the birds circle till they get their bearings.

  20. Re:70% terrorist on China Worried About Terrorist Pigeons · · Score: 1

    I was just thinking that it would be a great way to check the tracking software, have the computer just track the birds. 10,000 is about the number of a military division.

    So, the US uses xbox'es to train americas helo' pilots? For combat? For saving lives? I smell fish, 3 days in the sun.

    Is Microsoft 3 Laws Safe? Federal Courts have said, "no."

  24. Re:Fox News? on Scientists Seen As Competent But Not Trusted By Americans · · Score: 0

    What I find interesting about this is the preception that an intelligent person should need to be lead. Trust? When someone you don't know says, "I know more than you, do what I say." Your first reation is what?

  25. Re:We are fucked on FCC To Rule On "Paid Prioritization" Deals By Internet Service Providers · · Score: 1

    I guess is the rulers of the internet don't like the way the internet is run, they could leave. No one is putting a gun to their head, are they?
